2-Deacetoxytaxinine B, a taxane diterpenoid, was isolated from the ste
m bark of Taxus chinensis along with six known taxane diterpenoids and
the diterpenolignan, brevitaxin. The structure of 2-deacetoxytaxinine
was determined with the aid of spectroscopic techniques, including 2D
NMR spectroscopy. (C) 1997 Elsevier Science Ltd.
